The present invention provides a yieldable construction method for early releasing surrounding rock deformation on a weak toppling slope, thereby reducing surrounding rock toppling deformation risk in and after an excavation process and ensuring overall slope stability and safety of a supporting structure. A technical solution of the present invention is as follows: loosing a rock mass through controlled blasting; inducing toppling deformation of the slope by injecting water and softening a blasting relaxation part of the rock mass; determining timing of water injection by monitoring slope surface displacement characteristics of the slope; and performing a normal excavation process of the toppling deformation slope after injecting is completed. The present invention is applicable to design and construction of high slope engineering of a special kind of rocks, i.e., a toppling deformation slope composed of weak rock masses.

An energy island system arranged related to a body of water with a seafloor, a surface and a depth over an underground is disclosed. The system comprises a structurally rigid shell (1) extending from the seafloor to above the water surface, inclosing a lagoon of the body of water, material with a negative buoyancy stacked around the shell (1) forming a gravity stabilized wall (2), and a tunnel (5) established in the wall (2), providing for hydraulic communication between the surrounding body of water and the interior of the shell (1). Further, a method for construction of an energy island is disclosed.

The invention relates to a construction method, in which an excavation pit is produced in the ground and in the excavation pit foundation elements are produced at predetermined working points with at least one working apparatus. According to the invention provision is made in that in a computer unit the dimensions of the excavation pit, the working points and the dimensions of the at least one working apparatus are entered and in that in the computer unit a required workspace for the at least one working apparatus and an open space in the excavation pit are determined automatically.

A geotextile tube includes a bag unit, an extending unit, a main stitch seam, and two auxiliary stitch seams. The bag unit includes a tubular wall and an end wall cooperatively defining a filling space. The extending unit includes two extending parts respectively extending from opposite lateral sides of the end wall and each defining a buffering space. The main stitch seam extends from one of the extending parts to the other one of the extending parts for sealing the filling space. The auxiliary stitch seams intersect the main stitch seam, and are respectively disposed at the lateral sides of the end wall such that the end wall is substantially flat. Each auxiliary stitch seam separates an adjacent buffering space from the filling space.

An integral side slope structure of a soil-covered tank, includes a tank body, connecting pieces, and reinforcing frameworks. The exterior of the tank body is completely covered with soil, and a side slope is formed after the tank body is covered with the soil; each connecting piece is composed of ribs which are in cross connection to each other; the connecting pieces are connected to the outer wall of the tank body and are laid inside the side slope in the horizontal direction; a single-layer connecting net is formed after a single layer of the connecting pieces is connected to the tank body; a plurality of layers of the connecting pieces are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction; the tank body and the side slope are connected by the multi-layer connecting net to form an integral structure; the reinforcing frameworks are arranged along the side slope.

A system and method to create or elevate a berm of a liquid retention facility by placement of lightweight fill material anchored by an impervious liner material(s). The impervious liner material is integral to a water retention system such as a containment system of a retention pond. The system and method can also be used to elevate the liquid retention height of a levee in combination with impervious liner retention material. By constructing the berm system on an existing levee, the effective height of the levee can be increased. The lightweight fill material provides the shape of the berm or levee extension. The liquid impervious liner material provides a watertight surface, the media for joining of the lightweight fill material, and the anchoring of the lightweight fill material to the existing berm or levee structure.

A perforated geocell is made from a plurality of strips that form cells. Each cell wall has a single pattern of perforations spaced evenly over the cell wall. This avoids uneven distributions of stress over the cell wall, reducing deformation of the geocell.
